I am so glad I watched the right hand segment. There are so many incorrect bow holds out there! Thank you, Julia! I learned so much about how vital the memory is with movement!

Thanks GOD LOVE YOU❤

Thank you for this video.

Good information! Thanks for sharing it. Professional weight lifters/arm-wrestlers sometimes fill a bucket with rice, dunk the hand/forearm in, and twirl and twist everything around in different ways. Great resistance training!

What a great tip! Thank you, Daniel!

Muchas gracias por excelente y valiosa información....

These videos are great! Please do one on myofascial release. Thank you ❤

Really appreciating these videos. My forearms have issues (RSI related) and while I have been doing exercises to recover, nobody has ever shown me these violin targeted exercises. Were I in the USA, I would definitely visit!

Very interesting and helpful, it is so rare to have this insight. Thank you so much! I'd like very much to see some rehab training exercise for finger indipendente. Specificcally I can't really extend (get it straight) third finger without extending pinky (keeping it curly). I'm not sure if this is a common problem, but surely when it occurs it stops improvements. Thank you very much for you great channel!

Do you mean, you cannot straighten your ring finger while keeping the pinky finger curled?

hi I'm also violinist. I love your video a lot. But recently I got few questions about hearing problems with play violin. I hope you can have a video for that also. Happy new year and wish all the best❤

A most interesting (and horrifying) problem! The scientific evidence suggests that one should not practice too long for a stretch, and wear a good pair of earplugs, or at least stuff some cotton-wool into your ears. I actually find it painful to play without. While i am always careful about this, i have hyperacusis for no apparent reason and constantly worry about going deaf.

Подскажите, пожалуйста, что сделать при болях в указательном пальце правой руки? Мой друг либо сильно давил на смычок, либо пиццикато неправильно играл. Теперь ему больно держать смычок и ни один из врачей не может понять что делать.

THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO. We all have made extension exercises along our violinistic journey. Do they work to make us reach a greater distance on the fingerboard or are they just for relaxation?

Thank you for the video. Interesting.. my left pinky does not meet my thumb. My right pinky has no problem meeting the thumb as shown in the video

Thanks for this insightful video. Could you post a link to the resistance bands and putty? Can’t seem to find them on Amazon. Thanks.

Thanks! Does this info apply equally for the left hand also? It is hard to relax the left hand thumb when the muscles are so weak.

Yes it does!

Поможет ли экспандер в таких случаях укрепить пальцы? Или навредит?
